Sorry I went over my 25 comment limit

Yep. That's about as much as I want to read on any given post on any given day but that one pic I put up on the weekend with Bob and his suds? It struck a nerve.

I'm sorry if your comment wasn't published. I have emails where people have shared stories of horrid situations involving drunk passengers. Turns out, this is a topic way too many people can relate to - more than foot riding.

I will read the emails. I won't star them. If I star it, it winds up being part of a list that is now over 500 items long of emails I need to read. I'm not complaining. I enjoy the attention the site receives. It's just that, some days, it's a full time job needing time I do not have.

Please don't be mad. Remember, I still love you. That counts for something. Remember that children's television show where at the end, the female host would look through a hand-held mirror and she'd start reciting the names of kids she could "see" through the camera. I can't tell you how many times I waited for my name. I remember putting my face right up to the television in tears, smooshing my cheek and mouth, and whimpering, "I'm right here, say my name... "

I see you.

    With a name like Cindy you'd think I would have heard my name at least once!

    I made at least 2 comments on beer drinking guy. But I get why you do what you do. So hopefully you publish this one. I love reading your site just for the site, the comments aren't what bring me here so don't stress too much

    I am starting to feel left out. I am not remembering that show.

    I grew up in a country where drinking in public is allowed, so I always saw people drinking beer on the subway.

    I think Ontario/Canada is a bit too prude about alcohol.

    Don't get me wrong, I won't defend annoying drunks on public transit.
